About the event

On May 26, young coders and technology creators from around the world will fly in to the largest Coolest Projects International showcase yet, to share projects designed and constructed using their creative technology skills. Last year hundreds of young people involved in Dojos travelled to the event from 17 countries worldwide to present their projects on the day! Expect useful apps, hilarious games, customized websites, an array of robots and inspiring IOT hardware creations!

Last year we saw so many amazing inventions made by young people around the world including Selin’s “[email protected]– Smart Dog Collar”. She made the collar to track her dogs movements a it kept running off! Her project lets you know where your dog is and even how many steps they have walked! Sophie’s dance-mat game she made with a Makey Makey and tinfoil, or Prahlad’s coded Minecraft mod, he made to help young people understand type 1 diabetes! You can see more of the awesome projects at last years event here.
